26 days to go!

Sep 22, 2008 14:20

Ooooh yeeah! I'll go to Japan! I'll leave on October, 17th but I'll arrive to Tokyo on 18th.
It will be a great great greeeeat holiday!
I'm still working on the schedule, mainly on the Kyoto days. But I have still planned the concerts! And I have the tickets too! Let's see the vacation's schedule!

18th: We arrive in Tokyo. We'll go to the hotel and so on. If we have energy enough, maybe we'll go to an event in Shinjuku at midnight. Gothic event. There will be playing some bands like Auto-Mod (no I don't like Genet at all!!), Kozi (ex Malice Mizer) and Aural Vampire. It's extremely probable that I won't go there, I think I'll be exausted and I should spare energy for the next chaotic day, but who knows?
19th: Trip to Nagoya! We'll tour the city a bit and then... the first concert!! Sugar, NoGod, Juliette, Jully, Monokuro Kinema!!! SUGAR! SUGAR! SUGAR! I will see Sugar!! My japanese teacher is from Nagoya. I hope she'd suggest some nice places to see there. In the evening we'll come back to Tokyo.
20th: We'll tour Tokyo and surely we'll do a lot of shopping! I want to buy a digital photocamera and an electronic japanese dictionary. We'll go to Akihabara.
21th: Another concert! This day we'll see Sugar, Rentrer en soi, Nega, Deathgaze, born, Schmelz Cure, boogieman. Along with Sugar, I love Rentrer en soi and Nega. I'm very sad about Rentrer en soi's disbanding so this concert means a lot to me. They were a great band even if they didn't have the success they deserved. I'm still hoping in new project from the members, but right now no news have come.
22th: We'll go to Kyoto! This day, there's a matsuri! Jidai Matsuri! I still have to know where the matsuri is: I think I'll ask directly to the concierge when we'll arrive to the hotel.
23th: Visiting Kyoto!
24th: Visiting Nara!
25th: Visiting Kyoto!
26th: Back to Tokyo and back to another concert! This time: Girugamesh, heidi, bug! Veeery nice concert! I like Girugamesh!
27th: Visiting Tokyo!
28th: Visiting Tokyo!
29th: Visiting Tokyo!
30th: Another concert! Arc, E'm grief, kiteru band, monolith, awoi, juliette, bergerac! kodoku_sugar is very anxious to see kiteru band. You know, Koto (ex Sugar) plays there now. I'm more interested in Arc, E'm grief and Awoi, but kiteru band too: the vocalist is the ex gechena's one! Their music doesn't make me enthusiast but they're ok.
31th: This day still in Tokyo: Irokui, Dauto, ando, kiteru band, cellt. This time I'm interested in Dauto. Kouki seems a psychopath! Zipang is a very very good album compared to the ones before. Hey! Today is Halloween! I think we should be prepared for it! You know, clothes and make up!
Nov 1st: Guess what? Concert! Girugamesh, heidi, Sadie, The Underneath, uchuu sentai NOIZ, Arufabeto jun (??? who are they???). Today we add Sadie and the Underneath to the list of japanese groups we've seen! Another nice concert!
Nov 2nd: Visiting Tokyo! We'll go to Harajuku. Some friends heartily recommended to go to Harajuku on Sunday. Don't ask me why: I've already forgotten it! You know, this is a chaotic period!
Nov 3rd: Bye bye Japan... We're coming home...

This is how the trip is going to be. I'm sad that in this period there aren't any concerts from Buck Tick and 12012. D'espairsRay too but I've already been to their concerts (only one but it's better than nothing, isn't it?). Gazette's concerts are fan club only. Buck Tick and 12012 live should be an unforgettable experience. I'm very very sorry for this. Maybe, someday, I'd return to Japan again. I don't want to be too pessimistic!
Now I have to:
  • plan the trip in Kyoto and Nara (what to see and when and how to get there).
  • find out how to reach the live houses we'll go. Finding places is outrageously difficult in Japan! Why can't they have addresses like everyone else?
  • write to my japanese teacher about Nagoya
  • find addresses of tokyo's shops I want to go: Like an edison, black peace now, visual trap's, and so on...
  • fresh up my japanese! I don't touch a japanese grammar since june! I'm already rusty! Oh, and if anyone cares: I've passed my japanese culture exam! 30/30! Incredible!
  • contact my bank to raise my credit card limit! I'll buy everything in Japan! LOL

Maybe for today that's all! As you can see, I'm very concentrated on my job! LOL Ok ok I'll go but I'll come back here soon!

real life
